The installation of a special software for the realization of this additional function is completely eliminated. Corresponding memory space is saved at the telecommunication terminal. This functionality takes over the central VFS server. Because of the centralization, a provider can provide such audio clips also always the trend corresponding audio clips to choose from. It is also possible that third-party vendors, for example, feed daily changing audio clips based on user subscriptions in the VFS server.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé et un système pour insérer des séquences audio dans une communication vocale entre un abonné appelant A et au moins un abonné appelé B. Selon ce procédé, au moins un des abonnés A ou B insère une séquence audio souhaitée dans la communication vocale en appuyant sur une touche de son terminal de télécommunication (2a; 2b). Ce procédé comprend les étapes suivantes: l'abonné A appelle un serveur VFS (3) intégré dans un réseau de télécommunication (1), de façon à établir une liaison V1 entre l'abonné A et serveur VFS (3); l'abonné A transmet le numéro d'appel de l'abonné B au serveur VFS (3) qui établit ensuite une liaison V2 entre le serveur VFS (3) et l'abonné B; le serveur VFS (3) interconnecte les liaisons V1 et V2 de sorte que la communication vocale soit possible entre l'abonné A et l'abonné B; le serveur VFS (3) surveille au moins la liaison V1 pour reconnaître les tonalités DTMF sélectionnées par le terminal de télécommunication (2a) par l'intermédiaire de l'abonné A associé, de sorte que, selon la tonalité DTMF reconnue, une séquence audio associée est insérée dans la communication vocale entre l'abonné A et l'abonné B, en fonction d'une liaison mémorisée par le serveur VFS (3).
